Hey guys,
I know the rules are no soliciting on here, but I think this is a genuine (and valid) cause.
I am personally calling all of you on this board, NsHL GM's and AsHL GM's to meet or beat my donation.
I personally have donated $50 to the Canadian Red Cross in efforts to help those ravaged by the earthquake in Haiti. I am challenging all of you to do the same.
I know for some, money can be tight. But from what I have learned, the average Haitian lives off of $2 Canadian a day, so every cent can help. I'm not usually the kind of guy who does this kind of thing, but with the death toll rising and more to come from disease and lack of medical and basic treatments such as water, I think it's an important cause.
If you can, great. If you can only give a $1, great. But I think it's times like this where we as people can choose to help make a difference.
So if you're Canadian, please, if you can, donate to the Canadian Red Cross. And if you're American, well, I'm sure UNICEF or the American Red Cross can help you out with that.
Thanks guys! The Challenge has been set. I will go as far as this. For everyone who donates the same or more than me, I will donate that money in thousands from my team to yours. So if you donate $50, the Atlanta Thrashers will give you $5,000 of NsHL money. $100 would be $10,000, etc. But you have to meet me or beat me on this challenge.
Come on guys, let's pull together here and help them out!
